Researchers have introduced HERD (Harness-Evolving Recursive Distillation), a novel hybrid framework designed to enhance continual learning in AI models. This approach aims to mitigate catastrophic forgetting and improve plasticity by combining the strengths of parametric methods and non-parametric techniques like harnesses and skills. HERD refines skills to capture reusable patterns while retaining residual examples, and uses drift-constrained distillation to internalize experience, showing strong performance on a 25-stage task stream.
